The snow was falling, and there were very few pedestrians on the major streets of Luoyang City at this time, only a few people in twos and threes.

Beicheng belongs to the place where the imperial city is located, Dugu Lantai came out of the palace, and slowly turned around in this market, usually in addition to practicing is learning, there are few opportunities to come out, although the weather is not very good today, but it is also a rare opportunity.

I saw that he was dressed in thin white, and he didn't seem to feel the cold at all, which was in stark contrast to the few passers-by who were wearing thick clothes next to him.

The white snowflakes sprinkled in the sky kept falling, falling on his black head, and soon it was white, and the ground was already covered with a thick layer, he stopped and stopped, and slowly walked in the direction of the "Red Moon Tower".

And at this moment, not far away, a carriage driven by four black horses came to meet him, the carriage was very gorgeous, and there was a gray-clothed boy with a whip on it, and behind him was a thick curtain tightly blocked, and I don't know who was sitting.

Because the carriage was so fast, passers-by screamed and dodged to the side to make way.

But Dugu Lantai stood motionless in the middle of the road, because there was a little girl of five or six years old standing there not far in front of him, motionless.

At this time, passers-by also found the little girl, and they were all shocked, and some even shouted that the little girl should hurry up and dodge, but the little girl just grinned and looked at the oncoming carriage unmoved.

And the little guy who drove the car also saw the little girl standing in the middle of the road, and he was immediately shocked, and tried to hold the reins hard, trying to make the carriage listen, but the four horses were almost running forward, where could he pull and stop the horses?

He could only scream, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Seeing that the carriage was about to hit the little girl, suddenly everyone saw a white shadow flashing in front of them, the front hooves of the four black horses were raised high, the carriage behind was almost overturned, and the neighing of the four horses came, and the passers-by either turned their heads or closed their eyes, because they really did not want to see the cruel picture that was about to happen.

After a while, everyone didn't hear the screams, and they opened their eyes one by one.

The scene in front of them suddenly stunned everyone, and they all gasped.

I saw a handsome young man in white and one armed standing between the four black horses and the little girl, this young man was in the middle, his right hand was holding the reins on the heads of the four horses, and his face was calm.

Everyone was stunned by the boy's peerless divine power, how much strength did it take to make the running four horses stop suddenly, the strength of the four horses in an instant was close to Qianjun, and this young man actually looked calm, and stopped the four black horses without any difficulty, so how much strength did he have!

I don't know who applauded first, and then the dozen or so people around applauded together, they applauded the extraordinary skills of this young man, and applauded the salvation of that little girl.

At this time, the little girl's family found the child in the middle of the road, hurriedly ran over to pick her up, and kept thanking Dugu Lantai: "Thank you Engong, thank you Engong." ”

The woman was still about to kneel, but was helped up by Dugu Lantai and said, "Sister-in-law, get up quickly, don't do this, this is what Lantai should do." ”

At this moment, the thick curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a richly dressed middle-aged man walked out.

As soon as he came out, he kicked the little guy hard and scolded, "You stinky minion, do you want to fall me to death?!"

The little servant said with a crying voice: "Originally, the slave drove well, but who knew that he walked out of the person halfway and startled the horse, so he almost overturned the carriage." Then he pointed to Dugu Lantai and said, "It's him, it's he who shocked the horse!"

After speaking, he pointed at Dugu Lantai with a horsewhip and said: "Be bold and make a fool of the people, and don't kneel down to apologize to the adults!"

Dugu Lantai snorted and said: "It's really a dog fighting people, reversing black and white, obviously you almost hit someone to death, and you are still barking at that dog!"

The middle-aged man was immediately furious when he heard this, in the whole Luoyang, not to mention a small Diao Min, even if it was a Manchu Dynasty, who would dare to confront and ridicule him?

The little guy didn't say a word and was about to raise the whip to Dugu Lantai, and the middle-aged man suddenly glanced at Dugu Lantai's waist, and his heart was shocked, because he saw a waist card, a waist card that made him tremble, such a waist card he had seen in a certain person in the palace, and that was the phoenix now, the big pavilion leader of the plum blossom guard!

The middle-aged man suddenly shouted, "Slow!"

The little guy strangely lowered his whip.

The middle-aged man walked quickly to Dugu Lantai's side and said: "Today is my little servant, mainly because I am in a hurry and am in a hurry, so it caused the thrilling scene before." I also want to thank Gongzi for taking action to restrain the horse, otherwise a tragedy is inevitable. ”

After that, he kicked the little guy hard and said, "You dog slave, don't you apologize to this son and woman quickly!"

The little guy was stunned for a moment, completely confused by this sudden reversal of the plot, how could the majestic adult suddenly ...... today?

The little guy apologized in a trance and drove away in the carriage.

The onlookers were also secretly surprised, others may not know the reason, but Dugu Lantai was clear in his heart, because he recognized the middle-aged man: When today's nephew, the general of the right guard and the secretary of the military department, and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Wu Sansi!

He knew that Wu Sansi must have changed his attitude when he saw his waist card.

......

In November 689 A.D., the story begins here, at this time, it has entered the cold winter season, Luoyang in winter is particularly cold, the cold wind is howling, like a knife, blowing makes people hurt. In particular, there is still goose feather snow in the sky.

Luoyang City, the incomparably prosperous divine capital in the past, was white, and it seemed to be covered by this heavy snowfall. In such a cold weather, you can't see that kind of busy and lively scene.

I don't know how long it has been snowing, but at this time, Luoyang City is already covered in silver, and there is a unique scenery. However, because the weather is so cold, not to mention enjoying the snow, there are far fewer pedestrians passing by on the road.

Except for those hotels and shops that are open as usual, all the roadside stalls and those who walk the streets and alleys have gone home early.

North Side. Yifang City.

An inn with the name "Red Moon Building".

Although it is unusually cold outside and there are few pedestrians, the inside of the "Red Moon Building" is very lively and the business is also very hot.

"Red Moon Building" is divided into six floors, the style is simple, it is very magnificent, and its area is also very wide, in the Beicheng area, even Luoyang City, it is one of the largest inns.

You must know that in the Tang Dynasty at that time, although the level of architecture was greatly improved, in such a society with a very strict hierarchy, ordinary people could only enjoy a maximum of three floors of houses, even if it was those businessmen, the highest could not exceed four floors, and a six-story building like Hongyue Tower, the entire Luoyang City was not said to be none, but very few, and a slap could be counted. What's more, the Red Moon Tower is still built in such an eye-catching place in Beicheng, it can be said that it is under Wu Zetian's nose.

Then the identity of the boss of the Red Moon Building is very worth thinking about, and thinking about it also makes many people afraid, what a big man with his hands and eyes to the sky.

You must know that Beicheng is close to the imperial city, and those who can open shops and do business here are all people who are tough in the background and have a great background, because although there are many markets in this Beicheng, they live in the top three members of the dynasty and some royal members.

Therefore, those who open shops in Beicheng, behind them, there are more or less shadows of the court officials or members of the royal family, because there are these dignitaries, so the security of this Beicheng is much better than that of the Fang market in several other areas, and they generally do not dare to spread wild here, even if it is a stall, there may be a six or seven officials behind them to support it. So, business here is also very good.

There are three reasons why Hongyue Tower is so famous.

The first reason is that the business model of Hongyue Mansion is different, anyone can enter on the first floor, whether it is an ordinary person or a merchant or a beggar, only you have money, no matter who it is, you can. The second floor is only held by the person holding the bronze medal of the Red Moon Building, which is a red copper cast brand, one centimeter thick, the size of a palm, the front is engraved with the three seal characters of "Red Moon Building", and the back is a moon. When such a bronze medal Red Moon Tower was first built, it was sent out a lot.
